It wasn't until late afternoon he returned to the mansion. As he
entered he saw her sitting there on the luxurious leather sofa, talking with
the guys and Hikari. She was smiling, but he can tell it was fake. They finally
noticed him standing there and invited him into the conversation. He was
about to sit next Relena, but was pulled by Hikari. He could sense eyes on
him, but didn't move. This didn't surprise Relena. Heero never truly cared
about anything, even when Hikari clung to him like that. Maybe this is a good
sign, that he didn't care, but then again. When she did such things, he never
reacted either. Was this mysterious girl really taking her place to him?
Before Heero came back, she had a little conversation with Hikari. She
seems very nice and polite. She talk a lot about Heero though, things
that she herself did not know. Maybe, this is the answer to the questions
she've been asking herself all these years; 'What can get Heero Yuy to
open up.' She was swimming in her own ocean of thoughts that she
didn't feel Duo nudging her.
"Relena, are you in there?" He shouted. What could get the princess
so occupied?
"Huh?"
"I thought you were lost there for a second. I was asking you whether you
wanted to go out to dinner with us or not. We'll get the other girls on the
way, everyone's going. Then we're gonna hit the club. So what do you say?"
She took a short glance at Heero and then back at Duo. She shook her
head a bit.
"I don't feel so good, Duo. I'm kindda of tired after the flight and all." She
was a little dizzy and her head hurt. Duo looks at her with concern.
"Well, why don't you go upstairs and rest. We'll do it another time." Relena
shook her head.
"No, I'll be fine. You guys go ahead. I'll be fine alone." She lied. She felt
as if she'll collaspe in a minute.
"Are you sure?" Quatre asked.
"Yes." She whispered. She turned her head and saw all of them looking
at her with concern. She jumped up from her seat and pushed the huge
group out to the front door. "I'll be fine. You go and have fun." She tried
her best to smile and pretend as if she was alright. They all hesitated but
did what she said. Heero took one last look at her.
"Are you sure you'll be okay?" he asked. She nodded. He stared her
her a bit and then left with the others. Relena sighed and slumped
to the floor, with both hands on her chest. Her eyes winched in pain.
'What's wrong with me?'
======
Heero closed the door behind him. He had told the others that
he has forgotten his wallet back at the mansion was leaving to retrieve it.
This was just an excuse to go see how Relena was, she looked pale when
they left. As he turned around, he heard a loud crash.
'Relena!' He raced to the kitchen to find her lying on the floor, next to a
shattered coffee cup. He raced by her side and shook her.
"Relena, get up!" He continued calling her until he heard her stir. He
smiled as he saw her aquamarine eyes again. "Are you okay?" She
forced a smile. He picked her up and carried her to her room. He
place her on the bed. He removed his jacket and placed it on the chair
next to the bed. He then went into the bathroom and came back with
a damp cloth. He folded it and place it over her forehead. As she rested,
he watch over her.
======
She opened her eyes at the sunlight. Where was she? The last
thing she could remember was that she was getting a cup of coffee and
everything went blank. Relena could see Heero sleeping in a chair by
her bed. What was her doing here? He shifted a bit and opened his eyes.
He smiles as he helped her sit up on the bed.
"How did I get here?" she quesitoned. He could see that whatever she
caught last night was gone for good.
"I came back and found you on the kitchen floor. Are you okay Relena?"
he asked.
She smiled and nodded her head. Has he really cared about her and
came back?
He left the room for a minute or two and returned with a glass of water.
She drank the water as he put it to her lips.
"What happened?" he asked. She sighed and began to answer.
"I went to get a cup of coffee, but it just slipped out of my hand."
she supposed. He brought his hand up to her face and stroked her
cheek.
"I'm just glad you're alright. I would have killed myself if anything happened
to you." She smiled threw herself at him. He held her and thanked the heavens
that she was safe. She felt him push his forehead against her. He played with a
lock of her hair as they stared into eachothers eyes. She smiles at him, and he
returns her a bright smile as well. 'Everything's back to normal.'

Hikari stood against the wall right outside Relena's room and wondered.
'Who is this girl that makes you smile like that Heero?'
